Since she has several trucks leased into Dart..yes..I would say it is legit. You will probably receive your paycheck directly from Dart. |

No, you would get paid by the owner of the truck. Dart has to keep information on you because it is their authority.
If she is getting $0.90 per mile, and is giving you $0.35, I would be concerned that she wouldn't be able to afford to pay you. |

They'll run your MVR, DAC, do a drug screen, etc. They will get your logs as well. |

Save yourself some guessing and wrong information..check the website and give them a call at the Dallas office. When I talked with Dart in 05..Dart was cutting the paycheck, while I would have been driving a truck owned by one of the fleet operators.
